Anton Yelchin | featured news

This week at the movies, we've got a heroic strongman (Conan the Barbarian, starring Jason Momoa and Rachel Nichols), pint-sized agents (Spy Kids: All the Time in the World in 4D, starring Jessica Alba and Joel McHale), scary neighbors (Fright Night, starring Anton Yelchin and Colin Farrell), and part-time lovers (One Day, starring Anne Hathaway and Jim Sturgess). What do the critics have to say? The 1982 Conan the Barbarian became a seminal entry in the sword-and-sorcery subgenre, maiking Arnold Schwarzenegger a star in the process.

Two of the more anticipated panels at this year's WonderCon were the ones for J.J. Abrams' upcoming Star Trek and McG's continuation of the "Terminator" saga with Terminator Salvation . The two movies have a lot more in common than the fact they're the return of popular and long-absent franchises opening in May that both happen to co-star soon-to-be 20-year-old actor Anton Yelchin in key roles. Both movies decided to take advantage of the Wonder-Con crowds to world premiere their new trailers, which will precede Zack Snyder's Watchmen next Friday.

IESB is at WonderCon and spoke with cast members from TERMINATOR SALVATION today, including Anton Yelchin who was recently rumored to be in talks to play Hal Jordan in the new WB GREEN LANTERN live action film.

MTV's "Spoilers" aired a new featurette on J.J. Abrams' Star Trek , opening in conventional and IMAX theaters on May 8th. The new film stars John Cho, Ben Cross, Bruce Greenwood, Simon Pegg, Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Winona Ryder, Zoe Saldana, Karl Urban, Anton Yelchin, Eric Bana and Leonard Nimoy.
